Breeding has actually gone, like sadly, to a frozen zoo.
Imagine dedicating over two decades of your life to advocating for one of nature's most misunderstood creatures. That's exactly what Martha Handler has done.

From breeding programs to pre-release strategies, Martha explains the complexities involved in ensuring these animals can thrive in the wild.

It's a testament to her belief that understanding and protecting wolves can lead to broader environmental awareness and personal growth.
